Death Stranding and Metal Gear Solid mastermind Hideo Kojima admits that his "work is often regarded as being similar to a movie, but at the core, games are what I create"
  • imho: It looks like that game making is currently the only thing the big industry allow him to, while he does aspire to be more involved in the movie industry rather the gaming one. Weird direction since videogame industry is way more bigger than the movie one.

    I think it is a kind of recall to the classic arts, like when at a certain point in their career movie actors perform in live theater.

    Alex Battaglia: "Fortnite still sucks as a PC game. I wonder why Epic finds it acceptable that the first play experience on PC is an absolute disaster due to shader compilation"

    Fortnite still sucks as a PC game. I wonder why Epic finds it acceptable that the first play experience on PC is an absolute disaster due to shader compilation. I bet first time players love seeing hundreds of hundred millisecond pauses throughout their first matches even on enthusiast level CPUs!

    The last thing I ever want to do is 'Learn more' or have you 'Remind Me Later': Microsoft is pushing fullscreen ads for Windows 11 laptops to people still using Windows 10
  • Sadly, Microsoft doesn't need to do anything to have you to upgrade to Windows 11: you just need to buy a new device in the mainstream market. Aside from building your rig from scratch, of course.

    SteamDeck is a good example: Microsoft didn't do nothing to promote the handheld PC gaming industry, even if Valve shown that their free and licenseless OS proved to be the best one... most OEM deliver Window's only PC handheld, because they are afraid to lose the market segment of those who pirate PC games.

  • Nvidia warns of gaming GPU shortage this quarter, recovery in early 2025 — Chipmaker rakes in record profits as net income soars by 109% YoY
  • They are basically saying: "hey investors! We're gonna hijacking prices again for the fools that buy our products"

  • Path of Exile 2 developer finally reveals how much it'll cost to play in early access ["early access packs will begin at $30 USD" core supporter packs start at $60]
  • The long-awaited sequel will start as a paid early access game until it eventually transitions to the same free-to-play model as the original.

  • Steam is 'an unsafe place for teens and young adults': US senator warns Gabe Newell of 'more intense scrutiny' from the government if Valve doesn't take action against extremist content
  • There are companies that can operate control by using the money they get from billion of customers, and other companies that prefer to use the money the take from billion of customers to teach citizens how unfair the governments are.

    Those who are manipulated in favor of big corps are generally poorly educated individuals, so you can have huge number of that people, which translate in both social, economical and political power.

    The point is not Valve, which me or you can respect and enjoy as company, the problem is that laws affect everyone. If the laws favor predatory companies, Valve has either adapt to be predator or being extinguished.

  • Steam is 'an unsafe place for teens and young adults': US senator warns Gabe Newell of 'more intense scrutiny' from the government if Valve doesn't take action against extremist content
  • Extremist as defined by who? Valve lets the customer decide what is too extreme for them, which is how it should be.

    I think is best also in your interest, as consumer (and human being, if you aren't Zuckeberg or Bezos) if companies are called accountable for the crap they spread just to make investor happy.

    You may like Valve for their way of business, but the law doesn't work per persona: what it allow is a allowed to everyone (generally and depending if you're in a theocracy, oligarcy etc.)

  • Secret Level's producer can't fathom why Concord ended up failing: 'There was no nicer, more invested group of developers than the team on Concord'
  • I don't think people shrugged off on Concord because poor quality such as bug or inconsistency. Concord was a fine Overwatch-wannabe that went for hard-sci realism (not as interesting as stylized/cartoon as TeamFortress2 and Overwatch). Pubg had realism, but it was the original trendsetter. CoD aside (which has its own historical fellowship) how many other multiplayer GaaS went successful with that sort of realism as Lawbreakes.

    Also, blue water/red water problem: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Ocean_Strategy

  • Phison intros 'world's fastest' high-capacity 128TB SSD — Pascari D205V hits 3 million IOPS and 14,600 MB/s with PCIe 5.0
  • In few years, you may find more useful your kidney rather an HD that can hold just 3~4 copies of the latest CoD

  • Neowiz, the publisher of critically acclaimed steampunk soulslike game Lies of P, is creating a Red Dead Redemption style adventure.
  • That's pcgamesn: sometime they don't even put the actual title of the game they are talking about... or even a game in the same genre. They go something like:

    "This not Fortnite game, may look like Assassin Creed, but you must be in a Resident Evil to believe it: even Kratos from God of War would say no... just like that random NPC in Red Dead Redemption from the same publisher of the incoming Grand Theft Auto Six (or GTAVI-please notice me sempai Google-Seo)"

  • Steam Deck OLED: Limited Edition White - Launching Worldwide Next Week
  • That's not how you make survive a piece of hardware: Valve, stop thinking you are Nintendo, they make almost every new iteration of their hardware to fail, the Switch wasn't even a successful iteration of the WiiU... they had to kill their Gameboy legacy (DS) to make the Nintendo Switch to appear.

    SteamOS ecosystem needs to follow the path of Android. Do like Google did, not Nintendo!

    You make you own Linux handheld like Google did their first HTC gPhone, then Google Pixel... then push mobile manufacturer to make their own Android smartphone.

    Every other PC handheld coming out today is delivered with Windows, you're failing with the SteamDeck... Those handheld come with Microsoft's Store pre-installed, you're losing the war even if winning few battles, Valve, I am telling ya.

  • Kojima Productions acquires Death Stranding IP rights, presumably meaning the series will only get more unhinged
  • Not everyone remember that the actual first Metal Gear was a microcomputer (PC before it was cool to call that) exclusive... on the MSX2

  • Linux hits exactly 2% user share on the October 2024 Steam Survey [English, first place, switch place with Chinese language]
  • You get the lemmy crosspost link, and thus Lemmy discussions, from modern source; instead the combines history of all Lemmy posts from years ago.

  • Microsoft’s gaming revenue keeps going up, even though hardware sales are down
  • *Microsot's videogame business may had been up because they bought videogame business such as ZeniMax/Bethesda/IDSoftware, Activision/Blizzard and Mojang/Minecraft.

  • Slay the Princess - The Pristine Cut is out now
  • Crazy the first time I saw this thing was a random game (featured) on Itch.io

  • Fans Cancel Kingdom Come: Deliverance II Pre-Orders Because of Denuvo.
  • addendum: Denuvo is sick of “toxicity,” says people only hate it because it works

  • Steam Deck officially comes to Australia in November [256GB LCD: $649.00 AUD // 512GB OLED: $899.00 AUD // 1TB OLED: $1049.00 AUD ]
  • VAT in Australia is 10% (ref), but there are other things that effect the overall price (company's obligation, regulations etc.)
